I do not know this place as well as Wakanda.

I think I'm lost.

And Sigyn is still pounding away at my brain, making the search for Thor even harder.

And I don't have my meds.

I stumble down the hall, glancing in every doorway and corridor. But still trying to look inconspicuous. But that's kinda hard when I neither look, nor act like an Asgardian.

White Wolf training don't fail me now.

"Thor," I call out softly, turning down another hallway. "Thor, where are you?"

Pausing in a doorway, my breath catches in my throat.

I found it, Sigyn and Loki's courtyard garden. It's just like from my visions, only different. It's still recovering from Loki's meltdown. The plants are smaller, younger, probably just planted. The destroyed fountain is removed but Statue Sigyn isn't there yet, just a still pool in the middle of the courtyard.

I release a soft hum as I glance around. It's just as peaceful as it was in my dreams.

"Sigyn?" A voice calls from behind me.

"Oh shit." I hiss as my shoulders shoot up to my ears. I know that voice.

It's Frigga.

I turn slowly to face the Allmother of Asgard.

She walks toward me, her confused face changing to a knowing smirk. "You are not Sigyn." Frigga hums as she stops in front of me, looking me up and down. "You're the Midgardian girl... Kidara." She gives off another hum, looking me up and down again. "But not exactly her either."

I stare at her with my mouth open. "You know about that, about Sigyn and me?" I gasp.

"Child, I know everything." She hums, brushing a stray hair out of my face. "I know the true reason Sigyn did this and let me just say, I do not approve."

I smile at her with a slight shake of my head before wincing in pain, my head throbbing from Sigyn.

Frigga gives off a soft hum as she cups my face in her hands. She glares into my eyes, as a stern mother would. "Sigyn, you leave this poor girl alone." She orders, staring deep into my eyes. "You have had your chance at life. Now it is her turn. You will be with Loki again but now is not the time."

I stare wide-eyed at the Queen as she releases my face. She weaves her elbow into mine and leads me down the hall. "Come, let us go find my son."

"Oh... okay."

🐺

Frigga leads me down a hall before stopping. "Stay here dear." She whispers before walking behind a pillar. I watch her as she goes, confused.

Suddenly Thor jumps out from behind the pillar with a scream.

"Thor." I gasp as he jumpily walks toward me. Frigga walks out after him, an eyebrow arched as she watches him.

"You're better off leaving the sneaking to your brother," Frigga advises as she watches the odd behavior of her son.

"Now you see, I was going for a walk..." Thor slurs as he tries to make a quick escape.

"What are you wearing?" Frigga gasps, looking Thor up and down.

"I always use to wear this; this is one of my favorites..."

Thor stops squirming around as Frigga lifts a hand to his cheek. He gives off an uncomfortable hum as Frigga studies his face.

"What's wrong with your eye?" She asks, noticing his one gold iris.

"Oh, my eye. That's... you remember the Battle of Howoken when I got hit in the face with the... the broadsword." Thor slurs.

I roll my eyes up to the ceiling at his lame excuses. "Bast, ndinike unyamezelo kuba xa undinika amandla, ndiza kumjikeleza." Bast, give me patience because if you give me strength, I'm going to strangle him. I murmur with a shake of my head.

Frigga lifts her hand, placing it on his shoulder. "You're not the Thor I know at all, are you?"

"Yes, I am." Thor covers with a smile.

"Thor, she knows." I groan, trying not to facepalm again. "Why do-"

"SHH!" Thor hisses at me before flashing his mother a reassuring smile.

"The future hasn't been kind to you, has it?" Frigga asks with a tilt of her head.

Thor just shakes his head. "I didn't say I was from the future."

"Thor, she knows." I snap again.

"I was raised by witches, boy," Frigga whispers. "I see with more than eyes, and you know that."

Tears glisten in Thor's eyes as he starts to break down. "I'm t-totally from the future." Thor chokes out. Frigga murmurs in agreement. "I really need to talk to you." Thor sobs out.

"We can talk." Frigga hums before Thor tackles her in a hug.

I smile at them before glancing around awkwardly. "I'm..." I trail off as Frigga and Thor glance over at me. "Thor, I'm going to go find Rocket. Okay?"

Thor nods his head in thanks for getting a moment alone with his mother. I turn on my heels and head off to go find Rocket, leaving the mother and son to talk.

He needs this.
